Lily dozing off in the back garden in summer 2025. Maybe it was my riveting conversation 😉

True anecdote about Lily. She's not fond of my attempts at "singing". However, I love The Cure's song "The Lovecats" and when I alter the words to "You're so wonderfully pretty" in a whispering voice to her she starts purring!

It's a rain sodden December day here in #Manchester and Lily reckons it's only fit for curling up near the heating and placing a paw over her face while she sleeps 🐈‍⬛😴

"Never mind this bowls on the floor business, I'll eat in the shop!" Meowwed Lily.

"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof?"
Not exactly but Lily does enjoy her adventures.

Those eyes are Lily's hungry eyes in her food bowls area. She loves her food and is a VERY vocal #cat #catsofbluesky #BlackCat #Catlovers #Blueskycats #CatsOfBlueSky

A contorted Lily stuggling to stay on the rocking chair, not as the chair was rocking but more that her body length is astonishing 🐈‍⬛😮

Lily is feeling a bit listless today with all the November rain (cue "Guns N'Roses"?)
so all she wants to do is to wrap her paw around my leg #catsofbluesky #blackcat #BlackCats #Blueskycats #FurryFriday #Blackcat #Catlovers

71 years ago today, my parents married. My Dad died in 2010 but my Irish Mam is still with us. This is her wedding day. Many have commented in the past of her incredibly natural beauty as a young woman. #WeddingDay
